Joseph, Re: "While at Cebit (demonstrating software on Digital Alpha :-) I had a chance to ask a few questions on microprocessors."

Thanks. While I must admit this level of technology is a bit over my head, I do appreciate hearing about it.

I read somewhere that the fact Intel extended the delay of that Texas FAb by another year shows 1) They have no rush cause other FABs are producing the latest SLOT 2 (I'm guessing here)products. And 2) It gives them more time to set up the Texas FAB to better produce their heavy Merced product, among other things. But like I said this is all over my head. It just sounds real good for Intel going forward.

May be Paul E can add his expertise?

Joseph - Re: "COMPAQ they told me they will ship quad Pentium II SMP systems in the second half of 1998, employing DESCHUTES @ 400MHz "

Do you think Compaq will sell these for $850 or that the price will drop to $650 by the time they release this product?
